- kazen44 8y agoIf you are actually interested in learning more about networking, i cannot recommend starting your own homelab enough. networking seems to be a hit or miss for people, some people find it very logical and "easy" while others seem convinced it's black magic. networking basics is rather easy, the problem is complexity that gets added when you scale. (although i doubt you would reach that point in a homelab though).

And this one will fill out your knowledge on the routing side, although it is rather dry: https://www.amazon.com/Network-Routing-Algorithms-Architectures-Networking-ebook/dp/B005HRE41W https://www.amazon.com/Network-Routing-Algorithms-Architectu...
